Compiling squid 3.2 with Sun CC

Hello,

Bad news...

The first attempt was to compile squid 3.2.0.16 with Sun CC, using the same options working with gcc
4.6.3.

configure goes till the end but...

launching gmake, the process stops with :

source='GnuRegex.c' object='GnuRegex.o' libtool=no \
DEPDIR=.deps depmode=none /bin/bash ../cfgaux/depcomp \
cc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I.. -I../include -I../lib -I../src -I../include -I../libltdl
-I/usr/local/ssl/include -errwarn=%all -errtags -D_REENTRANT -lpthread -Usparc -Uunix -Ui386
-D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -g -c GnuRegex.c

gmake[1]: *** [GnuRegex.o] Error 2
gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/export/sources/squid/squid-3.2.0.16/compat'
gmake: *** [all-recursive] Error 1

This is because of the definition of "bool" return value of "xstrtoul" on xstrto.h.

********************************

config.log says this :

configure:24117: checking stdbool.h usability
configure:24117: CC -c -Usparc -Uunix -Ui386 -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -g
-I/usr/local/ssl/include conftest.cpp >
&5
"/usr/include/stdbool.h", line 42: Error: #error "Use of<stdbool.h> is valid only in a c99
compilation environment.".
configure:24117: $? = 1

*********************************
stdbool.h has the following :

#if defined(_STDC_C99)
   #undef bool
   #undef true
   #undef false
   #define bool _Bool
   #define true 1
   #define false 0
   #define __bool_true_false_are_defined 1
#else /* _STDC_C99 */
   #error "Use of <stdbool.h> is valid only in a c99 compilation environment."
#endif /* _STDC_C99 */

*************************************

So, to pass this, I tried to add "-xc99" option to CFLAGS and -xlang=c99 to CXXFLAGS (the one, the
other or both), but this doesn't solve the problem.

config log shows the same thing and gmake process ends with :

*************************************

**************************************

Sun CC is very pesky and I'm afraid it will be a hard work to get this working with Sun CC.

If you have any suggestions...
